Wasn't sure where to put this, so exuse me if it is in the wrong place....

When the emails finally started after conference I told myself,

1. If I get a certain email by noon then I really need to kick my arss into high gear with PC.. If they email doesn't come until after noon then maybe I should get back into the game.

2. If I like at least 3/4 of the new items I really need to kick my arss into high gear with PC...If I only like 1/2 of the new items then maybe I should get back into the game.

Needless to say, the email got to me before noon and I LOVE more then 3/4 of the new items....So, I REALLY need to kick my arss into high gear.

Finally for the question:

Now how do I get back to my "old" customers? The few times I have re-started PC (not meaning quiting just kept enough sales to stay active) 20 things seem to hit at once.. So just 1 or 2 parties get done, with only 1 or 2 newsletters sent out. And every part of customer service going by the waist side. Don't you think they are tired of getting an email saying "I am back!!"?

Any suggestions on what to do???
 
Could you do a reving up your business promotion? Send an email saying that you are aiming for x shows a month and if they are the 1st-3rd person to sign up for the months of august, sept, and october they'll get... " Also include a list of products being discontinued at the end of august.
 
I am trying to take PC full time, so I am telling my August hosts "To thank you for helping me reach for my dreams, I am going to thank you by making your show as easy as possible. I will send all your invitations and bring the ingredients. How does a Big, gooey turtle fudge skillet cake sound to you?"

This way I am giving them something in return and have stated my intention to quit my full time job to do pc full time and do grad school full time. I got a booking tonight for 2.5 weeks away! I think it is going to work quite well. and everybody that says no to hosting a show, I am asking if I can invite them to my mystery host show towards the end of August. This seems to be working for me so far! :)

Do you have a flyer for this??
 


Hi there! First of all, congratulations on getting back into the game and loving the new products! That's always a great motivator. As for getting back to your "old" customers, don't worry about sending out a mass email saying "I'm back!" Instead, focus on reaching out to each customer individually. Send them a personalized message or give them a call to let them know you're back and ask if they would be interested in hosting a party or checking out the new products. Personalized communication goes a long way in building and maintaining relationships with your customers. Also, don't be afraid to offer special deals or incentives for them to book a party or place an order. Good luck!
